A character i can't wait to see more of

[Dreenan]

I want Howland Reed.

[Werthead]

Benjen = Coldhands seems to be a declining theory in popularity (well, not here obviously!), being swiftly usurped by Bloodraven = Coldhands or Some Random Magical Guy = Bloodraven.

[Aegon the Unworthy]

Well for one havent accepted the Coldhands=Benjen thing. I want some sort of clue and not just Benjen disappeared in the north, and this guy comes from the north....ipso facto same guy....

You know nothing forum posters

[Trey Greyjoy]

What? No Jaqen=Coldhands? Im shocked!

I never liked the B=Ch hypothesis. Im of the Ch=some random magical guy (SRMG) camp.

[Dolorous Edd]

Then what on earth's happened to Benjen? It's Sandor all over again. Ben "died" offscreen, ergo - he's still alive (In some form). So he's either Coldhands, with the Children of the Forest or has been zombie'fied and is going to be one of the leading Wights.

[Aegon the Unworthy]

Sometimes a spade is just a spade...at least there were some clues with Sandor. I mean petting the dog...tossing the clod at the knight...with Coldhands its just one of those this is my only option kind of things.

GRRM has been exceedingly good at not dropping complete surprises on us so far. If the R+L=J theory is correct then he's already set the groundwork for it....If that guy is Sandor, the same....If Tywin had a hand in Joffreys death then I will laugh and point at all of you. But that aside Coldhands has no set up, none whatsoever.

If there is not something leading up to the relevation in the next book Im gonna drop an anvil on someone like they do in the cartoons. Seriously, if the opening chapter is Coldhands saying "Oh hello Bran...its your uncle Benjen...dont you recognize me" Im going to cry.

[Trey Greyjoy]

I agree with Aegon on this.

Although I think its possible that Bj=Ch, it just strays a bit too far into stereotypical fantasy-land for me.

"Lets give the reader another Shannara... er...Stark with magical powers!" bleah

[Aegon the Unworthy]

Hey someone agreed with me...thats happened like....never....Im all abeaming with joy.....cept of course its Trey and we all know he's a loon....Melisandre is evil?....pfft I say....pfft!

She's more evil than crappy beer. Definitely one evil bi***.

I'd like to see more of Barristan Selmy. He rocks.

Naah, we know from the end of AFFC where Jaqen is now.

But I see little discussion of the Rhaegar+Lyanna=Hodor theory. Disappointing!

[Aegon the Unworthy]

How about more Blackfish? Or more Jojen...a nice POV from Jojen...I think I would have to go lick some South American tree frogs belly to understand it but there ya go.

[Trey Greyjoy]

You know, a Blackfish POV would be great. Nay, outstanding.

[TK-421]

I've said it before and I'll say it again: SANDOR POV!!!!!!!!!! Now that would rock. Except I remember some of you snickering about whether we would be subject to his "thoughts" about the lovely Sansa.

Cept I feel it may take away some of the mystery - Is he a bad to the bone sorta dude or really a dark hero waiting to be redeemed? I'd be disappointed if it was confirmed either way.
